    100,000 MILE SERVICE

    Hey y'all: my 2003 MM is closing in on 100K. What are your recommendations for the 100K service and what do y'all think a 100K service ought to cost. I'm in NorCal. Thanks!

    The info should be in the owners manual.

    Plugs all filters and all fluids except the battery electrolyte and the washer fluid. Toss a new serp. belt on for good measure

    Most of what needs doing is very simple to DIY...I have no idea what labour rates are in Northern California, but you can save a ton of money...

    If it were mine I might even stick a water pump on it at 100,000 also.

    Why just the tensioner? I'd replace the tensioner and the idler and the belt. They all go round 'n' the same amount getting the same wear.

    Flush the cooling system
    Flush the brake system
